Petition Details

Bus tickets are just expensive. Noticed that a bus has a single for £1.20 but then the other buses are double that just for single.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Bus fares are not set by the UK Government. Local bus operators (bus companies) are free to set their own fares. However, local transport authorities (usually local councils) have the power to set maximum fares in some circumstances.

If you would like bus fares in your local area to be lower, you could raise this with your local council. You can find out who your local councillor is here:
www.gov.uk/find-your-local-councillors

You could start a new petition asking for the responsibility of bus services to be given to the UK Parliament, if that's what you want to happen.
